Malaysia and Her Minerals

It's been years since I have read about how resourceful Malaysia is with natural minerals... since left school. More than 10 years. Coming to 20! Gasp! Ahem! Anyway, I was rather delighted to read that we still have many potential states with minerals (according to our Mineral and Geoscience Department, that is):

The department has identified Perak, Pahang and Terengganu as potential areas for tin, Terengganu, Pahang, Kelantan and Perak for iron, Sabah and Pahang for copper, and Pahang, Kelantan, Terengganu, Johor and Sarawak for gold.

Perhaps these can help out after our oil resources dry off.
